Man in a Hat


I was taking a shortcut through a laneway behind Bloor St and happened upon this mural of a rather formal-looking guy. Although the mural has some graffiti elements about it, I quite like it. He doesn't look very happy though!

  1. Nice mural, I think you're right, he looks worried or tired, like most of the people who lives in big cities. The shadows enhance his dramatic expression. ;-)

  4. Nice find - I think that's why they have laneways in big cities, to hide little discoveries!

  7. To me he looks very tired like he's had a very long week.

  8. Why is it we have to wander down alley's to find such great work, I think he looks pensive, but love the jaunt of his hat.
